The Eastgate heads out on the road this autumn with a selection of events designed with and for some of Tweeddale’s more rural communities – taking stories, songs, tunes and films into some unexpected places.

Wild Little Stories

Join Mary Kenny for intriguing stories as you walk through these beautiful gardens. Expect stories of wonder, creation and the natural world, tales of the fairy realm, selkies, giants, and ghosts; the funny and the gruesome! There may be riddles, could be ballads and songs. There will be afternoon tea.
